Davis’ Late Header Seals Ipswich Win at Derby as Travis Is Sent Off

Ipswich’s bench advantage proved decisive, leaving Derby to replace suspended captain Lewis Travis for Swansea.

Overview

  • Ipswich won 2-1 at Pride Park to strengthen their Championship promotion push.
  • Derby captain Lewis Travis headed an eighth-minute own goal before Rhian Brewster levelled from the penalty spot on 68 minutes.
  • Leif Davis made it 2-1 with a 77th-minute header from substitute Kasey McAteer’s cross.
  • Travis was dismissed in stoppage time for a second yellow and will serve a one-match ban, with ex-PGMOL chief Keith Hackett noting yellow cards cannot be appealed.
  • Derby head coach John Eustace praised his team’s effort but said Ipswich’s stronger bench told, with the Rams still without several first-team regulars.
